Kiwi Sheepskins is a family-owned sheepskin specialist based in Auckland, New Zealand, and we have been shipping across the Tasman since we started in 2002. Around 95% of what we sell, including all of our footwear, is made here in New Zealand. Everything ships directly from our Auckland warehouse to addresses all over Australia.
Sheepskin rugs for Australian homes
Our natural shape sheepskin rugs are genuine hides tanned in New Zealand, so each one has its own shape rather than a cut rectangle. A single pelt works as a chair throw or bedside rug, a double gives you the length for a sofa or bed runner, and quarto sizes and up become a proper floor rug for a living room. If you are deciding between sizes, our guide to sheepskin rug sizes and wool types compares them side by side.
Worried a sheepskin will be too warm for an Australian summer? Wool breathes and moves moisture away rather than trapping heat, and shorter shorn rugs are a good fit for warmer rooms. We cover this in more detail in Best Sheepskin Rugs for Australian Summers.

Sheepskin slippers and boots made in New Zealand
Our sheepskin slippers and sheepskin boots are made by our own Auckland-based footwear manufacturer from twinface sheepskin, with wool on the inside and suede on the outside. The range covers scuffs, clogs and bootie slippers for around the house, plus mid-calf, tall and extra-wide-calf boots. Each product page has a Footwear Sizing tab with international size conversions, and our sole types guide explains the difference between soft, flexible and hard soles.
